I love the moment at a party
when the person who is being feted suddenly gets all choked up with
gratitude for the people surrounding her. I love how often it
happens that the whole room raises the glass to one person and that
person can only talk about everyone else but herself. It is this
sweet, poignant, and brief bit of time when it is clear that it
takes a lot of people to raise one person up.
At this party, we are celebrating the one-year anniversary of
Shine. And as all of us who are lucky enough to work here look
around the room, we can only say thank you to all of you who have
made this site as radiant and alive as it is.

priorities in tact and our life running as smoothly as possible.
